The Year of the Horse: Why You Need a "To-Don't" List

It is officially the Year of the Horse—a time for freedom, adventure, and advancement. But while everyone else is obsessing over their to-do lists, in this episode, we are focusing on the "to-don't" list.

We are breaking down why 2026 is the year to stop people-pleasing, ditch the "health fanatic" guilt, and stop carrying baggage that isn't yours. January is gone, but you have 11 months left to reinvent yourself and make this your best year yet.
